I used to go to solidcore and I seem to remember there was an issue with a class. We for the originally class credited back + another one.

Yup. Same here except I got a credit and two free spin classes.

Oops just realized this was March 17, haha. Thought it was from yesterday.

I'm not sure I'd describe your situation as a "failure", but I do understand your frustration. I'm sure if you speak to the studio manager, you'll get your class credited and perhaps something more like the PP posted. If you have the Elite package or whatever it's called, I'd chalk this up to sh*t happens, especially if this is a one-off. I'm sure the instructor was mortified and felt really bad.

NP. I think this is reasonable to ask for, OP.

Why would you need a babysitter?


I’m guessing it’s a liability issue. I’d be pissed too. If it happens again I’d cancel my membership but id forgive the coach oversleeping their alarm once. Only once.

I would expect at least $20 (missed class fee) credited to my account.

they do not provide a one time grace - why should instructors get a pass?

I would be so pissed if I woke up at 430 for a no-show teacher. I'd never go to their class again.

That is very frustrating. I hated when my gym, 24 hr fitness was not 24 hours right after covid and there were mornings I arrived only to wait in the parking lot for the open to arrive.

Hopefully it won't happen again. We all screw sometimes and oversleep. If it happens frequently I assume they would let the instructor go.

Did you talk to management and ask them to credit this class for you?

Today for the 5am class - the instructor was a no show. We tried to run on the treadmills and have a self guided workout but the desk clerk told us we were not allowed.

Instructor finally showed at 5:45am.

If I miss a class for some reason - I'm charged $20 no show fee. What do I get when the instructor doesn't show?
